NOPE Meetings

Meetings are NOPE’s signature events. Lively and well-run, they provide political insight and first-hand information about battleground states, candidates, grassroots organizing, strategic giving and volunteering. Attendees are given an opportunity to donate directly to featured candidates and groups without an obligation to give. Meetings are currently virtual.
